I would be horribly bitter and want some severe punishment. However, that isn't what happened. You can't send someone to jail for 80 years because something might have happened.
I do think they need to learn a lesson, have the shit scared out of them and have some consequences for their actions, but throwing someone in jail for something like this is not the answer.
We don't know much about these kids, but let's assume they are just typical college kids. Fucking up their life by putting them in jail for a long period of time isn't going to make the world a better place.All it is going to do is take two guys who likely would have otherwise got out of school, got jobs and became productive members of society and put them into the system where they may likely stay for the rest of their lives.
Had something horrible happened and someone was killed, maimed or seriously injured because of this prank, then I may well feel different about it, but that isn't what happened.
